Are you suffering brain damage? if you deny a flame oxygen, it goes out. You arent 'adding fuel' you are depriving the fire OF fuel.

If your really worried about this and willing to put time into an idea for Charlie my mum suggested a back pack made of natural materials ( NO SYNTHETICS!) Preferably bamboo, and try to put your scent on it and a treat in it and everyday put him in it to get him used to it. Don't close it for the first few times till he seems more comfortable and "Don't under any circumstances make a fuss over him!" It will enforce him that it's okay to be scared. But tell him that he's a good boy and don't force him just say we'll try tomorrow. He'll be obviously scared everytime don't give up cause you think it's too much. Do this anyway because of how your apartment is layed out. You have a escape for you and your husband. Charlie deserves his own fire escape ladder. You just need to spent time and patience like you would do if this was a child.

You have to drench the blanket first to be able to use it as a fireproof shield.

You can snuff out a fire with a blanket or a towel, it depends on the size of the fire and what is causing it. But you never fan any type of flame unless you're trying to encourage it to burn better.

Though, unplugging everything you don't use can save you on your electric bill. He may think its not that significant, but I've done it, its not super huge, but 10 dollars less a month is 10 dollars freaking less!...lol! Of course it's going to be different for everyone, depending on how many plugged in electronics you have and cents per kw that you're charged.

For grease fires you smother it with the lid or dump sodium bicarbonate on the fire you could have mentioned that. There might be some old people watching this broadcast like me I'm 69 disabled in a wheelchair in a nursing home.

It's amazing to watch deaf people yelling in sign language. They can't hear you idiot how were they supposed to use a conventional fire alarm? They could use flashing lights or vibrators in their beds which might help them have a better physical relationship! ‼️🌎☠️

They were like we are deaf not stupid. We know how to put out a fire! SUFFOCATION! THEY ARE COMPLETELY RIGHT! THROW A WOOL BLANKET ON THE FIRE. FIRE NEED OXYGEN TO SURVIVE!

A wet blanket would put a fire out in the the "olden days" because the blankets were wool. Wool is a fire retardant. Acrylic blankets would spread the fire.

I've never unplugged, except in kitchen. I recall my Mom unplugging everything and found someone else was using electricity we were paying for. But that was something she was looking for. I starting unplugging kitchen stuffs only b/c a friend of mine's family had an electrical fire. It terrified me.

Put the pet in a soft carrier and then put it on your back as a cross body carrier or backpack. Practice now and climb around so they are used to it. I used to practice that with a couple cats. Agreed regarding other countries vs. US. Make sure elders know what to do.

You know it's really concerning that everyone in this video, who is talking about fire safety does not know what to do in case a fire breaks out. Firefighters should know their audience. They were I'll prepared, shame on them! There are several smoke detectors made specifically for the deaf, from strobe lights to vibration activated pads placed under a mattress. Many elderly poeple, in fact children and adults die across America because they are not prepared in case a fire breaks out in the home. If you do anything after you read this comment. Please make a plan with your love ones on what to do if a fire breaks out. If you don't have smoke detectors make it the priority to get them! Many fire departments give them away for free. Contact your local fire station members about fire safety. Too many poeple die needlessly... if they only had a working smoke detectors. As a retired firefighter l take issue with TYT making this a light hearted story, shame on you! These people are most likely to die in a house fire!

Blankets are a legit way to smother a fire if they are wool, which doesn't burn easily, don't mock old people. But the old guy did say to fan it with a towel, he was definately confused!

I stand with the old folks! Throwing a blanket on a fire is fine if that's all you have on hand. just make sure you completely surround it. It's all about depriving the fire of oxygen.

<<@bucky8457

You can buy a timed switch/plug for things you want to use at certain times like a coffee pot to avoid it using power as much but you don't have to plug it back in later. They also sell surge protectors that certain switches only turn on when the main plug is powered on IE being plugged into a lamp. It's worth a thought for convenience but also being mindful about power consumption

<<@janemiettinen5176

Ana, in case of fire, you should stay in your apartment. If you cant, youll stuff Charlie in a backpack and go. Let him freak out, it wont last long and its better than being dead. I would store suitable bag with the escape ladder. Greetings from a former vet tech :)

I love y’all, but even a wool blanket can put out a fire if done quickly. You have to starve the fire of oxygen. And if you do it quick enough the blanket does not catch fire
